PPP: Photographies de personnalités politiques is a compelling visual history of global and French politics over 35 years. Raymond Depardon brings together 91 portraits of key political figures, including Salvador Allende, Charles de Gaulle, Nelson Mandela, and Ségolène Royal. The book traces the profound transformation of the relationship between power and imagery since the 1970s. Each photograph is accompanied by personal commentary from Depardon, detailing the conditions of the shoot—ranging from brief two-minute encounters to more intimate sessions—and his impressions of the individuals who shaped the modern world.
